Three Men in a Boat 03

Chapter 3 Packing             The following evening we met again to discuss our plans. Harris said, ‘Now, we must decide what to take with us. You get a piece of paper, J, and you get a pencil, George. I’ll write the list.’           Harris is always like this. He tells everyone what to do, and he does nothing.           My old Uncle Podger was just like Harris. When Uncle Podger did a job, everybody in the house helped. One day, Uncle Podger bought a picture. Aunt Podger asked, ‘Where can we put this picture?’           ‘Leave it to me. Don’t worry about it. I’ll do it all,’ Uncle Podger said.           He sent one of the girls to buy the nails. Then he sent one of the boys to tell her the size of the nails. He sent Bill to get the ham...

One night, a monkey was playing by well. It looked into the well and found a moon inside. The little monkey cried out immediately; “ Oh, no! the moon fell into the well! ” A big monkey heard and ran over to took a look, it also yelled, “ Oh, no! the moon fell into the well! ” An old monkey heard and ran over to take a look, and also cried out, “ Oh, no! the moon fell into the well! We have to figure out a way to fish it up ” So all the monkeys climbed up the big tree by the well. The old monkey hung upside down on the tree,holding the big monkey ’ s feet. The big monkey was hanging upside down, holding the feet of the other monkey. The monkeys were holding each other in this way and hung all the into the well. The little monkey hung it the very bottom. It reached out for the moon to fish it up . But as soon as it ’ s hands touched the water, the moon broke into the pieces. The little monkey said nervously ; “ Oops, I broke the moon! ” Everyone started blame to the little monkey. After ...

  Introdution The three men are based on Jerome himself (the narrator Jerome K. Jerome) and two real-life friends, George Wingrave (who would become a senior manager at  Barclay Bank ) and Carl Hentschel (the founder of a London printing business, called Harris in the book), with whom Jerome often took boating trips. The dog, Montmorency, is entirely fictional   but, "as Jerome admits, developed out of that area of inner consciousness which, in all Englishmen, contains an element of the dog".The trip is a typical boating holiday of the time in a    Thame camping skiff Contents Chapter One:   Health Problems Chapter two: Planning the Trip Chapter three: Packing Chapter four: Ready for the Trip Chapter five: First Day on the Boat Chapter six: Harris Makes Scrambled Eggs Chapter seven: The Laughing Tin Chapter eight: Montmorency Meets a Cat Chapter nine: Fighting Swans Chapter ten: Three Men Out of a Boat   CHAPTER ONE Health Problems There were four of u...

CHAPTER TWO Planning the Trip             We looked at the maps and  we discussed plans. We decided to start from Kingston the following Saturday.           ‘Harris, you and I will go to get the boat at Kingston,’ I said. ‘Then we’ll take it up the river to Chertsey, I where we’ll meet George.’           George works in the City until the afternoon. (George goes to sleep at a bank from ten o’clock to four o’clock, Monday to Friday, except on Saturdays. On Saturdays, they wake him up at two o’clock, and put him outside the door.)           The next problem was where to sleep at night. George and I didn’t want to sleep at inns. We wanted to camp out in the middle of nature.           ‘How beautiful,’ we said, ‘sleeping in the country, under the stars, by the river!’      ...

CHAPTER SEVEN The Laughing Tin             When we finished breakfast, the sun was up and it was a warm morning. I sat on the river bank near Runnymede. I thought about King John, who signed the Magna Carta at Runnymede, in II5. What a great moment in English history! I imagined the scene!           George came over and said, ‘When you finish resting and dreaming, please help me wash the dishes and other things.’           I cleaned the frying pan with some grass and with George’s wet shirt.           Later on, we went to Magna Carta Island. We saw the stone where the Magna Carta was signed. In this area, King Henry VIII met with his sweetheart, I Anne Boleyn. I am certain that King Henry VIII met Anne Boleyn in several other places, too.           We continued...

CHAPTER EIGHT Montmorency Meets a Cat             At Marlow, we left our boat by the bridge. We spent the night at the Crown Hotel. The next morning we went swimming before breakfast.           On the way back, Montmorency met a cat. Montmorency and I don’t agree on cats. I like cats. Montmorency doesn’t. When I meet a cat, I stop and say hello. I pet I it gently. The cat is happy, and I am too. When Montmorency meets a cat, the whole street knows about it. A lot of bad words fly through the air.           As soon as Montmorency saw the cat, he barked with happiness. The cat was walking slowly across the street. Montmorency ran after the cat. But the cat didn’t run. He didn’t understand that his life was in danger.           This cat was big and black. It had half a tail, half a nose and only one ear. It ...

  CHAPTER NINE Fighting Swans           After lunch, a gentle wind pushed us up the river past Wargrave and Shiplake.We got out of the boat at Sonning and walked around the village. Sonning is a lovely village. Everything is clean and beautiful. Each house is covered with roses. We decided to return to one of the Shiplake islands to spend the night.           George said, ‘Let’s have a special supper tonight. Let’s make an Irish stew. We can put everything into one big pan.’           ‘What a wonderful idea!’ Harris and I said.           ‘I’ll get the wood and make a fire,’ George said. ‘You two can peel the potatoes.’           This was a very big job. We were happy and excited. But when we peeled our first potato, we understood that this was not exciting — it...
